The recipes that you will find here, the first dish, a second of meat, and a dessert typical of the All Souls' Day, are matched with three wines: indeed, Umbria is also known as the Burgundy of Italy, because it is an undisputed home of historic, traditional and indigenous wines.
Pasta alla Norcina and Grechetto White Wine

In the original recipe, the sausage (300gr) is browned in a pan with oil, garlic, and onion. Cook it until the sausage and the onion are brown; then add 200 grams of sheep's ricotta and add parmesan sprinkle. When the pasta is ready, drain it and add it to the sauce, keep it well and, if necessary, add a truffle sprinkle. The chefs of Norcia suggest cooking lightly the truffle before adding it to the final dish so that its smell and taste can be more intensely diffused. The Grechetto, is the most representative local white wine in Umbria.
Stew Boar and Sagrantino of Montefalco

Then, drain it and blow the pieces of wild boar with the fat, butter, and oil. Then, add garlic, sage, rosemary, celery, onion, boron, and tomato.
Roast it for at least a quarter of an hour and elongate with the marinated blender.
Serve the dish hot.
Sagrantino is one of the oldest vine variety in Umbria. Its origin is still unknown, but it was almost certainly planted at the foot of Montefalco by the Franciscan friars in the Middle Ages after the land had been reclaimed. This dry red wine is very large and can be combined with fatter meat dishes.
Fave dei Morti and Sagrantino of Montefalco Straw Wine

Divide the dough into 20 balls, approximately the size of a walnut, and put each ball into a roasting pan, coated with baking paper. Slightly crush the balls with one finger. Place in the preheated oven at 150° for 20 minutes. Pull out and let them cool before you serve them. A bottle of sweet wine like the Stagrantine of Montefalco Straw wine goes well.
